You can set the client to use any TCP port. I would recommend port 443 which is commonly used for https. You can also use port 80 which is the common http port but some servers may have this port blocked. You will need to use TCP. Using UDP acceleration is an option. So unless the SoftEther server IP address is blocked in theory you should be good to go.

My SoftEther server was blocked on 3 different ports that I was using. Here is what is really weird:

1) The blockage is only on China Telecom (I tested on 2 residential connections) but it is not blocked on another China Telecom account (which was also signed up as a personal account but is in an area 3 km from my home).

2) Another port is not blocked so the blockage is port specific.

3) It is not blocked on China Mobile nor China Unicom.

So here you have it: the blockage is not by the "GFW" but by the specific ISP and in fact regional. Choosing another port solves the issue.

You may recall that there was a news article stating that the government is forcing ISPs to block VPNs so the block is ISP specific. What is also strange is that I have practically never connected to my VPN server via the China Telecom residential connections.

Can you show me where the UDP acceleration option can be turned on or off?

it is used well ,but i am still thinking,why this free vpn gate became useless in china. It is used well beore, but now every vpn server is blocked in
china. How can i unblock these servers? The owner of this site must work out some way ot make vpn gate become useful in china,I hope it can be done very soon. Thank you for your valuable work, but its price is a little high for me, i may try ,but soon i iwll give it up ,sorry for that.
